DJ Sober has left an indelible mark on the city’s music scene over the last decade, from launching the influential soirees The Party and Big Bang! to cooking up remixes and party records as one half of production duo Booty Fade. Along the way, he’s played Cowboys and FC Dallas games, spun private affairs for heavy hitters Erykah Badu and Dirk Nowitzki, thrown birthday bashes and pop-ups with Leon Bridges, and toured the country as the former DJ for rap group A.Dd+. All the while, he’s brought his distinctive taste and curatorial sensibilities with him, opening audiences’ ears to new sounds and ideas.

In 2023, Sober joined forces with Jake Saenz to open Herby's Burgers, a neighborhood smash burger joint in Elmwood curated to be a gathering place for the neighborhood.
